Cross Country Club

Welcome to the Cross Country Club at HMS!

Co-Advised by Ms. Lucy Shunk & Mr. Tyler Kozimor

 

The Cross Country Club is open to all 5th-8th grade students.  Athletes will participate in several practices and will then compete against other local middle schools in cross country races.  Cross Country is a great way for students to increase their athleticism and endurance, get into better overall shape and stay in shape between sports seasons.

 

In order to participate in Cross Country, athletes must have a physical.  Physicals can be performed by your primary care doctor.  If you are not able to schedule a physical with your own doctor, please contact the school nurse, Mrs. Terri LaPlante.

 

Athletes must have ALL of the forms below filled out and signed by a parent/guardian prior to participating.  Forms can be picked up from Ms. Shunk, Mr. Kozimor, or printed out using links below.
